the problem is that i cant un select a check thats in the macro

Function .onSelChange

!insertmacro StartRadioButtons $1
!insertmacro RadioButton ${g1o1}
!insertmacro RadioButton ${g1o2}
!insertmacro RadioButton ${g1o3}
!insertmacro EndRadioButtons

!insertmacro StartRadioButtons $2
!insertmacro RadioButton ${g2o1}
!insertmacro RadioButton ${g2o2}
!insertmacro RadioButton ${g2o3}
!insertmacro EndRadioButtons

FunctionEnd

if i insert

!insertmacro RadioButton 0

all the checkboxes will go blank but i only want one to go blank

Found a workaround

Function .onInit

StrCpy $1 ${g1o1} ; Group 1 - Option 1 is selected by default
StrCpy $2 ${g2o1} ; Group 2 - Option 1 is selected by default

FunctionEnd

Function .onSelChange

!insertmacro StartRadioButtons $1
!insertmacro RadioButton ${g1o1}
!insertmacro RadioButton $10
!insertmacro RadioButton ${g1o2}
!insertmacro RadioButton $11
!insertmacro RadioButton ${g1o3}
!insertmacro RadioButton $12
!insertmacro EndRadioButtons

!insertmacro StartRadioButtons $2
!insertmacro RadioButton ${g2o1}
!insertmacro RadioButton $13
!insertmacro RadioButton ${g2o2}
!insertmacro RadioButton $14
!insertmacro RadioButton ${g2o3}
!insertmacro RadioButton $15
!insertmacro EndRadioButtons

FunctionEnd

a little bit ugly but it works pretty well :)

Ah I see what you mean now...
Ok, let me look.

To do what you want would require you to modify the code in Sections.nsh itself.
I think it'd be easier to just have another radio button in the 1st radio-buttons block which had "No a-2, b-2" as a title (to the effect).

NHOCSUNG, are you asking us if your code works, or asking why we shouldn't use it because it does work? It doesn't work :p
